Samsung has started pre-registration for the upcoming Galaxy A-series smartphones in India.

Although the company has not yet announced the models, the launch is expected to bring the Galaxy A55 and the Galaxy A35.

Samsung has revealed some of the design elements of the upcoming Galaxy A-series smartphones through teaser images. The images displayed on the registration page show a vertically placed triple-camera layout on the back of the smartphones in left-orientation. This seems to be in line with Samsung’s recent smartphone design philosophy.

Additionally, the images show Key Island design for button pavement on the smartphone’s frame. The Key Island design is a relatively newer design element with a raised bump to house the physical buttons on the frame. Samsung first introduced the Key Island design on the Galaxy A15 and A25 smartphones that were launched last year.
